| You
have discovered a new animal living in an environment that you had
chosen to explore. You will need to tell the world about your
discovery. You will do this by creating a museum exhibit to show your
animal and tell about your discovery. The animal you
discovered is doing very well in its environment. You will create a model of the environment in which your animal
lives, and you will create a 3-D model of the animal you have
discovered. You will need to use the information sheets as guides to
explain your animal. Be sure that as you create your animal, you
create one that will live very successfully in the environment you've
chosen. Your engineering challenge is to trying to make the parts of your animal and, possibly, your environment move. Try to make your museum exhibit interactive for the visitor. |
